Abstract: | A simple, area-specific coating technique for fluoridated apatite (FAp) on teeth would be useful in dental applications. Recently, we achieved area-specific FAp coating on a human dentin substrate within 30 min by a laser-assisted biomimetic (LAB) process; pulsed Nd:YAG laser irradiation in a fluoride-containing supersaturated calcium phosphate solution (FCP solution). The LAB-processed, FAp-coated dentin substrate exhibited antibacterial activity against a major oral bacterium, Streptococcus mutans. In the present study, we refined the LAB process with a combination of a dental diode laser and a clinically approved light-absorbing molecule, indocyanine green (ICG). A micron-thick FAp layer was successfully formed on the dentin surface within only 3 min by the refined LAB process, i.e., dental diode laser irradiation in the FCP solution following ICG treatment. The ICG layer precoated on the dentin substrate played a crucial role in inducing rapid pseudo-biomineralization (FAp layer formation) on the dentin surface by absorbing laser light at the solid-liquid interface. In the refined LAB process, the precoated ICG layer was eliminated and replaced with the newly formed FAp layer composed of vertically oriented pillar-like nanocrystals. Cross-sectional ultrastructural analysis revealed a smooth interface between the FAp layer and the dentin substrate. The refined LAB process has potential as a tool for the tooth surface functionalization and hence, is worth further process refinement and in vitro and in vivo studies. |
